A lesson in humility
It was supposedly a happy confluence of events. Yesterday I had to create a CV and noticed that everyone else had a corpoate profile photo but me. I knew that FGR was asking us to do B&W Self Portraits today. Yay! I could kill two birds with one stone.
Except the only thing killed was my ego. Believe it or not, this was the best "corporate profile photo" that came out. None with the suit coat worked. None. WHY didn't the camera focus half the time?! Why did I never have a chin? Why was my hair kaflooey?! This was the only one that stood a chance of looking good and it doesn't.
Yeah, there are decent photos, but none that served my purpose. I went for a specific look and failed. I won't use this in my CV; it'll tell the world that I am retard.
It's days like this that make me want to buy extension tubes and take up photographing dandruff as a hobby.
